For the marathon, there are a few food stops: Clif gels, bananas, & chocolate are the ones that come to mind. Water and powerade also available on course (I think every other mile?). That should be covered in the event guide linked here.

Hi there! For the full marathon, I’m in corral D and I understand they will do smaller waves within each corral as you mentioned getting there early. Is placement within your assigned corral just based on arrival time, not your bib number? Thanks!

Correct. You will determine placement- basically by how soon you arrive in the corral. If being in the first mini-wave of D is important to you- head right to the corrals when they open (an announcement will be made in the reunion area). Don’t wait.

Not smaller; just bigger corrals! This is how it was until — gosh, 3 years ago I think? Then they expanded to P corrals. They are doing mini-waves inside the big corrals, though. So the earlier you get into the corral the sooner you will start.

If you submit a half marathon for time, they seem to double the half time and add 15 minutes to it. Where putting in a full marathon as proof of time should give you the exact time you’ll be seeded at. Does that help?

You can come and go once you get into the corrals- but it gets packed in pretty tightly the closer to race time. So moving back up to the front waves might be more challenging. But it can be done! 🙂 Good luck!
